      I’m unclear as to whether you’re saying this is a positive or negative.

      I see it as a positive - it means they have a price and that price is the same for everyone without favoritism.

        Negative. As someone who lives in a 3rd-world country where minimum wage is $0.75/hr, even a senior accountant position would be lucky to earn $750/mo working 10-12hours a day. So pardon me for not favoring the idea of “equals price for everyone”.

        For us down here, it’s either Steam Regional Pricing or the high sea.
